Not sure if you need to change your rotor disc too, our aus dc5r disc is thinner then the jap dc5r rotors so we need sk2 rotor to match the the brembo calipers. not sure about the thickness of ep3
EP3TYPER:
What you will need if running with stock oem ep3 rims is:
1. jdm dc5r brembos (be sure it includes the 4 bolts, since they are slightly longer)
2. S2000 disks/rotors
3. 18mm spacers (15mm bolt-on hub centric extended stud spacers plus 3mm thin spacers) -> this clears brembos from oem rims by approx. 3mm
4. (Optional) : Camber bolts, if you want the oem rims to look flush with front guards. Tuck oem rims under the front guards (1 Degree camber adjust is sufficient). I have these camber bolts if you need them at $70 for the pair.
Use existing brake lines as per normal.
good luck.

Reason: clarity of spacers
I would suggest you upgrade to S/S braided brake lines while you're at it to get the most out of the brembos. Also, if you're running more than 10mm thick spacers, get those hub centric ones with those extended studs built into it; or just get some aftermarket wheel or jdm dc5 wheels, i think they have some high offset like 17x7 +60 if i remember correctly
edit: actually with those offset i think it might hit the rear trailing arm lol
vtak + jrsc = bwwaaaahinneeeee
IF GUNS don't kill people, peoplekill people does that mean that toasters don't toast toast, toast toast toast?

agreed, that was what meant about the bolt on spacers (extended stud ones).
